New MiDAS DA allows any high-speed or event capture video camera to be used in a data collection environment. Continuing the legacy of the MiDAS family of high accuracy, highly synchronized video and data acquisition software, revolutionary MiDAS Waveform per Frame™ technology lets you combine and synchronize data from a variety of sensors such as force plates, accelerometers, strain gauges, tachometers and pressure transducers with video.

The simple and intuitive MiDAS DA software captures the data directly while simultaneously sending synchronization pulses to the camera, keeping your data and video in perfect alignment. Avoid costly training by using your native camera control software to acquire video. Then simply drag the video onto the MiDAS DA screen. The MiDAS DA Auto-Sync feature will automatically synchronize and display your test results.

Providing recording rates of up to 2,000 fps at 512×512 pixel image resolution the Focuscope SV-200i utilizes the high resolution performance and broad spectral response of Generation III image intensifier technology to provide an integrated imaging solution for high speed microscopy applications.

To obtain the highest optical efficiency the Focuscope SV200-i camera head incorporates a 512×152 pixel advanced CMOS imaging sensor fiber-optically coupled to an 18mm Generation III image intensifier module. The camera head provides a C-mount thread for attachment to standard optical microscopes and objective lenses. Image intensifier controls are conveniently located on the camera head.

A single 6 meter cable connects the SV-200i camera head to a standard PCI format control card. Incorporated on the control card is 2.6GB recording memory allowing a recording time of 8.2 seconds at 1,000fps with 512×512 pixel image resolution.

System control is achieved through Photron FASTCAM Viewer (PFV) software providing an intuitive operation environment. FASTCAM SDK software provided with the system allows user specific control commands to be integrated within other environments.

To complement the existing range of Photron high-performance high-speed imaging products, the FASTCAM SA4 delivers a fully featured system including mega-pixel resolution, high light sensitivity, high dynamic range and low noise at an attractive price level.

For demanding applications that do not require the highest frame rates but where all other aspects of system specification are important the FASTCAM SA4 is the correct choice. Applications include fluid dynamics, biomechanics, material test, airbag development and test, microscopy and automotive safety testing.

The FASTCAM SA4 is 100% compatible with the existing range of Photron products and shares features such as remote keypad with built in view finder for remote operation and support of Photron data acquisition devices. For applications where ingress of dust would be hazardous or external fans are undesirable a sealed case option (FASTCAM SA4 RV) is available.

* Trouble shooting
* Quality control
* Research
* Defence

Several different memory options are available; all fitting snugly against the card to ensure never more than a single PCI slot is required per camera system. Current options include:

• Standard 2 Gigabyte (GB) for 1.54 second record time at 1,000 fps.
• Enhanced 6GB for 4.61 seconds at 1,000 fps.
• Expanded 12GB for 9.22 seconds at 1,000 fps (available Q1 2005)
• Maximum 24GB for 18.44 seconds at 1,000 fps (available Q1 2005)

Despite the compact packaging, the 1024 PCI offers amazing bang for the buck with many of the features normally only available with much more costly systems, such as memory partitioning, variable speed/aspect ratios, over exposure protection, etc.

* 512 x 512-pixel resolution up to 2,000 fps
* Electronic global shutter to 4µs
* Records at speeds up to 32,000 fps
* Large 16µm pixels provide maximum sensitivity and color fidelity
* Four camera systems can operate in a single PC
* Photron Motion ToolsTM software provides matchless performance and choice through a selection of optional modules.

The Photron FASTCAM-PCI ushers in the next generation of high-speed video camera systems, offering superior image quality. Recording rates range from 250 full frames per second with 512 x 480 pixel resolution up to 10,000 partial frames per second. Recorded images are stored in the PCI board’s memory and then accessed by a PC via the PCI bus for display or analysis. Because the images are stored on the PCI board they can be transferred rapidly to the PC disk drives for archiving. For engineers or OEMs wishing to develop a customized motion analysis system, a Visual Basic/Visual C++ SDK is supplied with each camera.

* Combination of a high-speed camera and PCI board for image display, control and processing.
* 250 full frames up to 10,000 partial frames per second in both color and monochrome models.
* Up to four cameras can be simultaneously operated from a single PC.
* Only one PCI slot required per camera.
* Live Mode allows images to be viewed on PC monitor during recording.
* User interface similar to other Photron products allowing easy training on multiple camera systems.

* All the playback features of MiDAS are here, including variable-speed playback, zoom view, jump and circle-playback. MiDAS Player works with all file formats — AVI, BMP, JPEG and TIFF. Load, shorten, change formats, re-save.
* Distribute the MiDAS Player to your clients, customers, co-workers, or include it on your CD-ROM with your images. The MiDAS Player is a great display and demonstration tool.
* Free. No distribution license required. Just download directly from the web.
